The Winter Paralympic Games "We Are Together. Sports" (Russian: Зимние Игры Паралимпийцев «Мы Вместе. Спорт», romanized: Zimnie Igry Paralimpiytsev «My Vmeste. Sport»)[1][2] was an international multi-sport tournament organized by the Russian Paralympic Committee. It was held from 18 to 21 March 2022 in Khanty-Mansiysk, Russia.[3]

The games were organized after Russia and Belarus were banned from the National Paralympic Committee-sanctioned 2022 Winter Paralympics in Beijing. The ban was a response to the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine.[4]
